Awards

Well I had my eyes well and truly opened with the Skittles  match during last weeks awards, I am not exagerating when I say I genuinely feared for my life sitting next to the alley, how there weren't holes made in the floor I will never know :)

It was a great turn out with most of the club coming along for the social meet and  Im sure we managed to stink the club out with garlic too :) Thankyou Alison for arranging the food for us all.
